java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1-b24)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1-b24, mixed mode)

Have a program with a textfield. If we input characters by using "Alt+XXX"
combination, Ascii to unicode conversion is not happening properly.
I tried giving diffrent encoding schemes to system property
"sun.io.unicode.encoding" and textfield.getBuffer("encoding"),
nothing worked.

For example

Alt+4 should result in 9830 instead it comes as 63

Where as in MFC Unicode project we get the right values.

More examples

Key Input VC++ Java

Alt+65 65 65
Alt+5 9827 63
Alt+127 8962 166
Alt+181 9569 166

Resulting characters from VC++ is the actual unicode values.
